monk was a guy i met when i first came into this wis-thing a few years back. cranky, cantankerous sort who berated me for my naivity. i immediately was drawn to everything he said, like a moth to a flame. endearing chap, much like you, felon, but a bit more edgy.

Ray Allen will be playing the role of Chucky when I face a team with a weak defender at G. I'll likely have a few different rotations depending on the G matchup for each game, and Allen, Green, Curry, and Kobe may all get a start here and there at SF. Kobe/Allen will always share 48mpg at a single position to protect the usage, but the exact position will be dependent on the matchup. The majority of remaining bench will be low usage rebounders to complete the PF position.

After missing the playoffs two seasons in a row, I decided to do a couple of things:

1) Go back to the old strategy that has done me so well. My last odl ship team was odl xxxix and built around the Mailman & Nash combo. Surround Mailman with boards up front & a decent rebounding bomber at the 2 that could cover Nash's man (was Rush in both leagues). My backups in that league were better (had Charlie Ward ffs), but I prefer Boerwinkle to Chandler (better defensive boards, will make Nash & Mailman shoot better), so that's cool, but I preferred having Ho Grant to Faried (I like Faried's offense very well, however).

2) Not do any commentary. I miss the dance; I don't tell people who didn't miss it what I think of their teams.
